I love Yahweh, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy.

Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.

Yahweh is Gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.

Yahweh preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.

Return to your rest, my soul, for Yahweh has dealt bountifully with you.

I will walk before Yahweh in the land of the living.

What will I give to Yahweh for all his benefits toward me?

Yahweh, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your handmaid. You have freed me from my chains.
